Embodiment
Be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.Describe preferred embodiment and be for the present invention is described, rather than restriction the scope of the invention defined by the claims.Those of ordinary skills will appreciate that and can carry out the multiple variation that is equal to following description.
The invention discloses a kind of mask substrate with improvement of improved antireflecting coating, this antireflecting coating has lower chemical activity and/or better antireflective properties.
One embodiment of the invention as shown in Figure 3.Described embodiment has substrate 301 and mask layer 302, typically is chromium, has anti-reflecting layer 303, chemical inertness top layer 304 and resist layer 305.This anti-reflecting layer 303 and chemical inertness layer 304 can comprise one or more laminations.The top surface layer does not contain chromium and comprises chemical inert material, for example silicon dioxide or silicon oxynitride.Thereby described lamination is optimised the antiradar reflectivity that is given between resist and the coating.When removing resist, aerial reflectivity is about 6%.Antiradar reflectivity between lamination and resist has been removed the standing wave that forms in the prior art.
Existing mask plate has 6% or higher reflectivity between resist and chromium lamination, thereby has provided the periodic modulation of 2: 1 local irradiation dosage.Use post exposure bake to remove standing wave.This post-exposure is crucial treatment step, must strictly control avoiding and make a mistake.Removing the required diffusion of standing wave also influences process range negatively, particularly for little characteristic dimension.
Have many possible structures in General Definition scope of the present invention, these structures can be used commercial film program, for example basic MacLeud studies and optimizes.By ellipsometer (Sopra for example, Plasmos, Woolam) or reflectometer (Nanometrics, Perkin Elmers, BioRad, n﹠amp; K), can obtain experimental data for material and the design checking.
Fig. 4 has represented to use the resist section of substrate/mask plate of the present invention.
Fig. 5 has represented the mechanism of the resist section back in Fig. 2.Exposure light 501 shines on the resist 502 and produces acid 503.Acid molecule at room temperature part spontaneously and partly during post-exposure bake along mobile route (random-walk path) 504 diffusions at random, and activate (" surrender is protected " de-protection) chemistry and amplify resist and make it in developer, become solvable.The effect on resist and the length of the evolving path are proportional.Yet, when an acid molecule catalytic oxidation chromium surface 505, it otherwise be neutralized, or be bound in 506 places, thereby make it not continue diffusion.Binding energy can be quite little and freely spreading of hindered acid still.The result is reversed exhausting of the described acid of diffusion gradient.
Fig. 6 has represented identical in the present invention diffusion.Described chemical inertness top layer is not in conjunction with acid and do not have exhausting of acid.Therefore there is not the bottom.
Used similar in the manufacturing of mask plate of the present invention and the prior art, but the difference to some extent of filling a prescription accurately.Come deposit chromium and anti-reflective film lamination by sputter.SiO 2Thin layer is splashed to the anti-reflective film top.Mask plate is subjected to viscosity promoter and handles, HMDS for example, and resist is by spin coating.Cure mask plate then to evict solvent from and to compress resist film, this resist film is examined and is exposed until it by carrying/storage.
Photomask has the optical density more than about 3 or at least 2.5.With denary logarithm decay, optical density is 3 to mean 0.001 transmissivity to optical density in transmission.
It below is the prescription that provides desired result with the thick lamination of 90nm.Reflection between resist and coating be 0.8% and optical density be 3.3.
Cr 0.85-j 2.01, thickness 68nm,
SiO xN y2.12-j 0.50, thickness 22nm,
Wherein j is the imaginary part of complex index.
Below prescription has the SiO of stoichiometry (stoechiometric) 2Thereby top layer further improves chemical inertness and reflectivity.It has 0.3% reflection and optical density is 2.8.
Cr 0.85-j 2.01, thickness 55nm,
SiO xN y2.12-j 0.50, thickness 22nm,
SiO 21.50, thickness 10nm
By to SiO xN yOxygen plasma treatment is carried out on the surface, can obtain the superficial layer of oxidation in first prescription.
The CrO of more approaching present use xN yAnother prescription have 0.6% reflectivity and 3.0 optical density.
Cr 0.85-j 2.01, thickness 60nm,
CrO xN y2.12-j 0.80, thickness 20nm,
SiO 21.50, thickness 10nm
CrO xN yAnd SiO xN yThe characteristic manufacturing that all can change and under specific situation thickness and/or technological parameter must carry out optimizing empirically.The foregoing description calculates based on the refractive index in common field.Also can use other chemical inertness compounds to make the surface that does not contain chromium with good characteristic.But use silicon compound to have a lot of benefits.The silicon face chemical substance by known to the public and viscosity promoter and other surface modifiers by known to the public and understand.Make SiO 2And SiO xN ySeveral technologies of film are available, comprise evaporation and sputter, reaction equation evaporation and sputter, CVD and plasma deposition.Silex glass has the extraordinary viscosity to chromium, perhaps for metallic chromium or for chromium oxide.
In another different embodiment, use the silicon substitute chromium.Silicon has higher complex index than Cr at the 248nm place, so lamination is thinner than Cr.In addition, silicon is easy to etching and has better dry etching selection to resist, thereby provides more stable technological process and can use thinner resist.Following lamination has 0.0% reflection and 2.7 optical density.
Si 1.69-j 2.76, thickness 40nm,
CrO xN y2.12-j 0.80, thickness 27nm,
SiO 21.50, thickness 10nm
Identical materials can be used for the work at 193nm place, although the optimum thickness of different layers has small difference.
The problem of time delay in the mask duplicator (mask-writer) is that they are long and is uncertain to a certain extent.The light pattern generator has in the area that is capped is proportional writes the time, but some place, synthetic water plane system have to stop and etc. pending data, caused certain unpredictability for technology.
For the long time of writing, use the resist of low-activation energy to have advantage, for example by Clariant provided by name 1100 resist or by the resist of the KRS by name that IBM provided, wherein, the surrender of resist is protected at room temperature and spontaneously taken place.This is accompanied by the diffusion of acid usually.It is unnecessary but its diffusion of having removed any acid of leaving over and having caused eliminating standing wave that final PEB protects for surrender.Use is according to mask plate of the present invention, do not have standing wave or has the standing wave of minute quantity.
Can be by developing or stopping to handle the diffusion that stops acid, wherein mask plate is exposed to the amine of high concentration, ammonia or other alkali.Yet the simplest stop the diffusion be the development panel.Do several advantages like this: do not cure and remove one of one of source greatly that CD changes and process deviation.The influence that has reduced the long delay time is protected in spontaneous surrender after the exposure of any from the teeth outwards point.
The acid of leaving over has caused diffusion and can provide the CD error that depends on delay.Yet it can be predicted and in advance by precompensation.Write strategy and mentioned and provided almost constant CD effect by identical inventor in U.S. Patent application 09/664288, it can be corrected by dosage or the processing by data.In the described method of exposed mask motherboard (reticle), used multiple exposure approach (exposure pass), wherein said exposure approach is formed on first and second directions, and first and second directions are relative substantially.
The formulism of some photoresist needs the appearance of water to protect so that surrender to take place.Here it is why chemistry amplify the reason that resist can be used for electron beam system with 24 hours or the longer time of writing.Use dry atmosphere in the light pattern generator that is to work in the air, slowed down surrender during writing and protected and reduced the influence that postpones, as long as mask plate and water shielding.Dry atmosphere has caused the problem of charging and static, these problems must be processed with alleviate, for example use ionizer.Use dry air to purify duplicator.Load-lock (load lock) guarantees not have outside air to enter into obturator.
In plasma, use chlorine etching silicon base film.This chemical process with etching chromium is identical, thereby these two kinds of films all can be etched in identical gaseous mixture.For being the mask of silicon entirely, can optimizing etching and do not consider the etching needs of chromium.
For of the optical registration of chromium (or equivalent material) pattern to the second layer, the important difference that is between the resist of the resist of a side and substrate and opposite side and chromium lamination, to exist reflectivity.Above-mentioned prescription provided only be used for DUV near 0 reflectivity, therefore non-Optochemical sensor is useful.Can in transmission or reflection, check at the different wave length place, but for the inspection of reflecting the medium wave strong point, antiradar reflectivity is a problem.
Although the example of front is illustrated according to a kind of method, it is understandable making in this way device and system.The magnetic store that comprises the program that can put into practice the method that requires is a kind of such device.Computer system with storer of the program that loads the practice method that requires is another kind of such device.
It is evident that to apply the present invention to news, for example other wavelength and material.The reflection graticule that is used for EUV is one and significantly uses.Can use other outer mask materials of dechromisation, and the chemical inertness layer can be based on other compounds except that silicon compound.An example is to use diamond carbon film.
Although with reference to preferred embodiment and the example described in detail above the present invention is disclosed, be understood that these examples are to be used for illustrative purposes rather than to be used for limiting.Those skilled in the art can make amendment and merge the present invention, and these modifications and merging still are in the scope of purport of the present invention and claims.
